Re: Would be my first choice Rebekah Send a noteboard - 16/06/2011 11:11:46 PM
Most likely an adorable little corn snake.

Anyone have/had a pet snake? Advice? Suggestions?

Look into all all the crap you have to buy to take care of properly. My buddy had a couple snakes and he was constantly buying crap for them. Not sure he needed all that crap but he thought he did. Also how long will the damn thing live. You may be making a twenty year commitment.

Like children, then? :P

Any reasons why we shouldn't get one?

After a little while they get pretty boring. They really don't do much and they will never show affection.

Depends on the snake breed, apparently.

Any reasons why we should?

They work better than puppies and small children to get hot girls to talk to you at the park. Not sure how much that will help you but it is what I always likes about them.

Men. :P

You don't need anyone come and feed them if you go away for the weekend and they don't bark or demand attention.

Definite attraction.

I like snakes.

I do to. That is why I always go to the reptile house at the zoo.

Yeah.

Well. I like our friend's pet snake. She is lovely.

Snakes are cool but I don't think they make very good pets. I prefer either fish or domesticated animals to live in my house.

We have fish, and we can't have obvious animals in this house because of the title deeds. When we buy a family home we'll get dog and cat as well. I love animals. :)

Isn't a ball python a breed of trouser snake? *NM* TaskmasterJack - 17/06/2011 01:53:19 AM 417 Views

Live feeding is illegal in the UK, unless the snake in question refuses all other food. Morgawse - 16/06/2011 11:14:46 PM 792 Views
What? Why? *NM* Avendesora - 17/06/2011 05:55:13 PM 287 Views
I don't know, but... Morgawse - 17/06/2011 06:01:45 PM 818 Views
I can't speak for the illegality, but... Cockatiel of Doom - 21/06/2011 02:23:36 AM 1046 Views
Good enough reasons, but making it illegal?! The nanny state is so bad they're coddling snakes? *NM* Avendesora - 21/06/2011 11:50:13 AM 298 Views

If you plan getting a cat in future think twice about the snake. random thoughts - 17/06/2011 03:37:05 AM 690 Views
This kind of snake is too small to bother a cat. Rebekah - 17/06/2011 09:43:07 PM 599 Views

I can't prove it, but believe the reptilian brain too primitive to comprehend concepts like "love". Joel - 16/06/2011 10:11:20 PM 865 Views
Why do you assume we'd get a big snake? Rebekah - 16/06/2011 11:15:45 PM 904 Views
I don't assume it, I merely included the possibility. Joel - 17/06/2011 01:01:12 AM 850 Views
